You're a bad critic. At least if you are going to critique boxers, do it to the right ones next time...

[Darkstar]

They are all done in the heat of the moment? What kind of **** is that? Are you saying that when two guys are in a clinch and one ofthem decides to whack the guy in the back of the head it is 100% instinct? How about Joe? He admitted to intentionally low-blowing Hopkins to repay him for the KD in their fight. I guess he is a rule-breaking ******* as well huh?

You don't have to bother replying to this post. I just find your line of argument completely ridiculous and I think you would find pretty much any rational and intelligent person would agree with me.

Carry on.

Spin it however you can but he broke the rules. Read that again. You could say it was the refs fault and I wouldnt say anything. Comparing little rabbit punches and what Molsey did is ridiculous.

For such logic, you would have to posit that each boxer thinks and acts the same, similar to robots. Surely not all boxers will think the same way. Therefore you cannot point to a fight and say "this is how Mosley should've acted". There is no universal way of thinking and acting in boxing...They are their to entertain and win, and Shane still at that age had the heart to win. How he can be criticized for it is quite odd...

That has nothing to do with it. Rules are rules, enforce them or take them out. Just stick with it was the refs fault, its the best thing to say.

In all honesty, would you feel the same way if your boy wasn't defeated and was not the opponent?

Yeah, at this high level of boxing I dont want anyone to be hit with a cheap shot. Everyone should be held to the same standard.

Did you expect them to have stripped the W out of his resume though? I certainly think action from the governing body would not have been necessary. I mean he was winning on the score cards. Even if it wasn't counted as a KO, Mosley would've won regardless. Had Mosley been down on the cards, maybe it would be a different story. But still, I think you're making a big deal out of it. I have a slight feeling that had it been another opponent or had Mayorga been the one doing it to another opponent, maybe you wouldn't be making a big fuss about it. But we won't know regardless...

[MANGLER]

Nothin but love for SSM, which is why I'm in the middle on the fight between he and Marg. I'm sure it'll be good, but I don't wanna see Shane KO'd, and I got a feelin it's comin. I wish him the best. He's 1 of my favorites.

No I didnt expect anything like that.

Mosley was down on one of the three cards going into the 12th but I still dont think anything should happen. Im not trying to make a big deal about it but it did happen. Its true, I just dont like when people try to deny it and argue that it didnt.

[ßringer]

i thought it was a VERY close clear UD for cotto... i didnt like how cotto ran the last two rounds...

Shane ran from Miguel too, somewhere around the middle rounds.

[My Name Is...]

You mean a guy who lost 2 times a piece to Winky and Vernon. A guy who was on Roids to beat oscar. A guy who hasnt had a big win in a sin June of 2000.

I mean he beat Oscar the fist time. Beat some bums. Beat a guy who was not even close of what he once was in Vargas and Mosley was losing or had a draw in the first fight before they stopped it.

The dude is the meaning Over Rated.

Why do people think he is so good?
